Put a note in the OP about the fact that I approved this.

I also recommend that you increase the minimum from three hours, but it's up to you.

Anyway:

+ Guns n' roses- sweet child o' mine
- Cyndi Lauper- Girls just wanna have fun

Well... If you don't change the points system (+3/-3) it looks like this thing will go on forever! ...or maybe until those five songs hit like several hundred points each.

Edit:

+ Crazy Train

- Hungry Like a Wolf

Yeah, the negative vote should be worth more points than the positive. That way points are being deducted from the game's total with every post... unless you're just doing it this way at the beginning so that people's favorites aren't easily voted off prematurely.

+ Ozzy - Crazy Train
- Hall & Oates - out of touch
